Re: [PATCH] pci-hyperv: Use only 16 bit integer for PCI domain

Hi John,

please fix your quoting of the previous mails, thanks!


What ACPI defines does not matter at all.  Linux uses 32-bit domains
IDs, and on x86 specifily uses those for non-ACPI enumarated domains
(e.g. VMD).

You've also not demontrated any issue with any Linux driver yet.

Just send the fix to whatever driver is broken to the driver maintainer.
But I can't find a single broken driver in the tree, and as you know
nothing else matters for Linux anyway.
